Stephen Rothwell a081e126e1 [POWERPC] Fix cell pmu initialisation
Make sure that the pmu is not initialised unless we are running on a cell.
Also make the init routine static.

Maynard Johnson 18f2190d79 [POWERPC] cell: Add oprofile support
Add PPU event-based and cycle-based profiling support to Oprofile for Cell.

Oprofile is expected to collect data on all CPUs simultaneously.
However, there is one set of performance counters per node.  There are
two hardware threads or virtual CPUs on each node.  Hence, OProfile must
multiplex in time the performance counter collection on the two virtual
CPUs.

The multiplexing of the performance counters is done by a virtual
counter routine.  Initially, the counters are configured to collect data
on the even CPUs in the system, one CPU per node.  In order to capture
the PC for the virtual CPU when the performance counter interrupt occurs
(the specified number of events between samples has occurred), the even
processors are configured to handle the performance counter interrupts
for their node.  The virtual counter routine is called via a kernel
timer after the virtual sample time.  The routine stops the counters,
saves the current counts, loads the last counts for the other virtual
CPU on the node, sets interrupts to be handled by the other virtual CPU
and restarts the counters, the virtual timer routine is scheduled to run
again.  The virtual sample time is kept relatively small to make sure
sampling occurs on both CPUs on the node with a relatively small
granularity.  Whenever the counters overflow, the performance counter
interrupt is called to collect the PC for the CPU where data is being
collected.

The oprofile driver relies on a firmware RTAS call to setup the debug bus
to route the desired signals to the performance counter hardware to be
counted.  The RTAS call must set the routing registers appropriately in
each of the islands to pass the signals down the debug bus as well as
routing the signals from a particular island onto the bus.  There is a
second firmware RTAS call to reset the debug bus to the non pass thru
state when the counters are not in use.

Kevin Corry 0443bbd3d8 [POWERPC] cell: Add routines for managing PMU interrupts
The following routines are added to arch/powerpc/platforms/cell/pmu.c:
 cbe_clear_pm_interrupts()
 cbe_enable_pm_interrupts()
 cbe_disable_pm_interrupts()
 cbe_query_pm_interrupts()
 cbe_pm_irq()
 cbe_init_pm_irq()

This also adds a routine in arch/powerpc/platforms/cell/interrupt.c and
some macros in cbe_regs.h to manipulate the IIC_IR register:
 iic_set_interrupt_routing()

Kevin Corry e4f6948cfc [POWERPC] cell: Move PMU-related stuff to include/asm-powerpc/cell-pmu.h
Move some PMU-related macros and function prototypes from cbe_regs.h
and pmu.h in arch/powerpc/platforms/cell/ to a new header at
include/asm-powerpc/cell-pmu.h

This is cleaner to use from the oprofile code, since that sits in
arch/powerpc/oprofile, not in the cell platform directory.

Arnd Bergmann 5231800c6f [POWERPC] cell: Add symbol exports for oprofile
Add symbol-exports for the new routines in arch/powerpc/platforms/cell/pmu.c.
They are needed for Oprofile, which can be built as a module.
